No flare gun? What if everything else fails.... and then it's dark? What then?
Re: Some hints for beer
I went to America expecting only Budweiser... went on the San Diego beer tour and was duly corrected. Double bastard is awesome :)
Excellent - can't wait! At least I'm prepared I guess!
Recently had cause to visit the job centre. Thoroughly depressing and I imagine to prove of little use (the comments here seem to bare that out). Fun!

This makes sense... I would like to buy shares please!
Cool! Remember how awesome it was going to someone's Myspace profile to have a song autoplay? Good times..
We briefly had a Kirkstall Fried Chicken, the signage oddly had small letters for everything but K, F and C. How weird!
It seems that AVG managed to get that certification. I'm still not going back there though *shudder*

Re: Great Game on Wii too.
Got seriously addicted to the online multiplayer.... but I've given up getting to level 56 (I'm not great at it, as it turns out!)

Re: Damnit....
Pooka - massively aggree! (Especially seen as Napster has forced me into transferring via playlists.... which I just don't like)
Miek - Shiny...... have to seriously consider that!

Are you a hot BABE in heels and a short skirt?
This is the internet right?
Then yes, yes I am ;)
Seriously though... such levels of fail....
Riddles? Ruh-roh!

Ah but now we do know Mr Page!
Their own review didn't find any wrong doing? That settles it then...

Well, get your wallet out first...

Good old XKCD, I'll drink to that....... but beer, instead of creme eggs. Happy Friday!
Re: the eleventh commandment
I enjoyed that more than is reasonable, have an e-beer!
"we won't judge the scientific accuracy here."
A good idea I reckon!
Priorities in check then
I remember that, its foul!
Excellent work Reg :) Beer time?
It always seems so expensive.... but whenever I have been tempted to get something (its Christmas, I've a new system/money and am too impatient to wait for delivery) the slow moving queue gets in the way of browsing!
Posted in Facebook IPO: Boom or bubble?
I originally assumed it was one of those things where you buy the virtual currency with real money. The comments are making me question this now.

I love the tone in articles like this. Excellent distraction from work...... right, what's next?
What do you mean 'work'?
That london logo was a bargain, wasn't it?
IIRC Madrids was done by a competition, with a prize award of €6000.

Let's hope they do keep it the same, I'm legally hearing tons of new music at the moment. Other legal alternatives would cost thousands!
Its a character on Charlie Brooker's screen wipe. I Highly recommend the 2011 one, which features a very funny Barry Shitpeas.

Not an absolute novice, but I could stand to learn more. I'll look to balance it with some experience... volunteer work etc. Thanks for the advice!

That reminds me, I'm going to start the Linux+ course tonight..... would the good minds here advise against it?!
I really have nothing to contribute, save to say..... BEST HEADLINE EVAR?
Oh its so nearly beer o'clock?
“perhaps other coincidences in other solar systems have led to entirely different and exciting new forms of life"
Doesn't seem to be said enough i reckon.

Ah excellent, I will download some more George Clinton to celebrate :)
Posted in Dead at 13: Napster 1998-2011
I'm told that in the UK the service will retain the Napster branding. I'm hoping its business as usual - the Napster model suits me and I don't want it to go!
ok..... its funny again now (!)
Posted in Sony Walkman NWZ-A866
I like the A-series - the audio quality is pretty good.
However, I want to be able to do play lists on the fly and when I transfer music from Napster can I set the convention for albums? I browse by artist, if an artist has done an album with a lot of 'featuring' tracks (hey, I'm looking at you hip-hop!) can I please just have one entry for the 'main' artist?
Still, I would like a new player soon so its in with a shot :)
Posted in Goldeneye 007: Reloaded
The Wii version is pretty fun (online) - was worried that finding a game would become hard because of reloaded. Its not looking that way from the reviews!
